Boldfacing

There is no justification in WP:BOLDFACE for boldfacing hte names of TV shows. This is especially true where the TV show is in its own section with a subheading. The reader will have no trouble navigating through the article, and does not need the clutter of superfluous boldfacing. Ground Zero | t 16:41, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Significant trimming of Former Staff section

I just cut everyone out of the alumni section that does not have their own Wikipedia page or have a reference to establish their notability. This is the current consensus procedure, based on discussions at WP:WikiProject Television Stations and at [the Village Pump]. The rationales are as follows:

1. Most importantly, per WP:NOT, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information." As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
2. Secondarily, per WP:V, we cannot include information that is not verifiable and sourced. I'm not certain how it would even be possible to source this information.
3. Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.

All of the people with their own pages are notable enough to appear on this list. However, if you look at pages about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable. Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of info, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher).

KNTV Programming

In November 2010, KNTV seems to be running a "hyper-localized" version of its 4:30 a.m. newscast. The one that I saw was called "Today in the East Bay." I assume that "Today in the East Bay" is sent only over cable TV to the East Bay area. Does anyone know anything more? Does KNTV have other "hyper-localized" newscasts?Jab73 (talk) 08:28, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

I believe that when I first saw Today in the 'East' Bay, to me, it is a half-hour morning show that primarily focuses on the East Bay Area. You may be right about "hyper-localized" (and I believe it is the only show that is of that type), but when I saw the show, it seems to put more focus on the East Bay rather than the rest of the Bay Area. I think this is because that the East Bay may have some contributions to crimes that often happen in some communities, but it is not limited to Oakland or Richmond. From my experience, though, the show also focuses on all of the Bay Area when major events occur anywhere in the Bay Area. The weather and traffic portion also primarily focuses on the East Bay as well, but as I said, it is not limited to just the East Bay. CHAK 001 (talk) 04:29, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

Anchor and Reporter Confirmation

For the reader's convenience, the sports' anchors that has been confirmed on-air will be updated as needed. No sources are required (though it is recommended when there are available links including the mention), but the mentioning of "on-air only" must be added to be considered valid. It will be confirmed during newscasts currently due to lack of online references and due to a limited number of anchors that are confirmed online. CHAK 001 ^{(Improvements? Please let me know!)} 09:21, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

One more note: Please note to verify that all anchors has been confirmed on-air; a number of IP users added personalities that some users were unable to confirm, either on-air or via the website. CHAK 001 ^{(Improvements? Please let me know!)} 12:50, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

Issues with receiving KNTV over the air

There are [longstanding reports] of people not being able to receive KNTV over the air despite all other major channels working. Many reports speculate that Comcast is intentionally maintaining poor signal quality or at least being complacent about addressing the issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.210.184.27 (talk) 21:54, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
